Termites (20 photos)

Magnetic Termite (Amitermes meridionalis). Litchfield National Park, NT, Australia. If you go to the park is not on the main road (via Batchelor), and on the dirt road (via Berry Springs), then after 30-40 minutes after turning on the primer, you can see the whole "thermite city", which from a distance looks like a strange cemetery.

Termite mounds are clearly in the aforesaid "strip" which do not grow trees and shrubs. The band goes from south to north, and almost all of termites "ribs" too focused on the north / south. It's funny that "strip" comes from nowhere and rests clearly in an old uranium mine. :)
